Dane James worked my
stepfather’s fields. He was the boy next door.

Strong.

Hardworking.

Forbidden.

From the moment we met, we were star-crossed
lovers—always wanting, never having. We loved each other for most of our lives,
but right from the beginning destiny had other plans.She knew we would fall in love.She knew we would fall apart.Over and over again, like the curse of a
recurring nightmare.Or the hope of a
familiar dream.

Our past was tumultuous.Our future was bleak.But the one thing we always had was the
beautiful now.

Until that was taken from us, too.

My Thoughts:

It’s no secret that I am a big fan of M. Leighton. She is one of my go to authors and her books never let me down. So many of her books have spots on my all-time favorite’s shelf. With that being said, The Beautiful Now is one of my favorite Michelle books to date. It’s the perfect blend of heartache and happy. I connected with the characters immediately and loved them so much.

I adored Brinkley. She is so strong and the way she built her life is something to be admired. I also loved that while she was strong she was vulnerable too. Simply put, she was real and I loved her mistakes and flaws and all. Of course, I also loved Dane James. He was such a good guy and it’s a shame so many others couldn’t see that. These two together were so wonderful and they truly broke my heart.

I won’t give anything away, but I want to say I love how this book was written and that we got to see events from different points in time. Michelle does a great job of giving the readers a clear picture of why things had to go the way they went and how something that seemed so good went so wrong. She really shreds your heart to pieces in this one, but then she puts it back together and makes all the pain worth it in the end.

I have so much more I want to say, but I don’t want to spoil anything. All I’ll say is The Beautiful Now is a great read and will both break and mend your heart. M. Leighton delivers an addictive and gut wrenching read with this one.

New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author, M. Leighton, is a rarelyever comfortable speaking about herself in the third person, but here goes. Michelle is a former nurse who has always harbored a passion for the written word, a weakness for alpha males, and a profound love of all things romantic. Never in her wildest dreams did this Yankee-turned-Southerner imagine her life as it is today. She has the best job in the world, a husband who treats her like a princess, and a dog that's so smart she may one day write a novel, too. You can often find Michelle hidden away in her cave, crafting a new story, or out in the sunshine enjoying some quiet time with her man. Movies, wine, and good food are frequently thrown into the mix, and exercise on days that start with Q. She loves laughter, chocolate, the color red, and you can find out more about her at www.mleightonbooks.com.
